Aflatoxin M1 in milk does not contribute substantially to global liver cancer incidence. AFM1 exposure through liquid milk consumption does not substantially increase liver cancer risk in humans. Policymakers should consider this low risk against the nutritional benefits of milk consumption, particularly to children, in a current global situation of milk being discarded because of AFM1 concentrations exceeding regulatory standards. |
Folate intake and incident chronic kidney disease: a 30-y follow-up study from young adulthood to midlife. Higher folate intake in young adulthood was longitudinally associated with a lower incidence of CKD later in life. Additional studies are warranted to establish the causal inference. |
Gastrointestinal dysfunction during enteral nutrition delivery in ICU patients: Risk factors, natural history and clinical implications. A post-hoc analysis of the TARGET trial. Large GRVs were more common in males and those receiving energy-dense formulae, occurred early and were short-lived, and were associated with a number of negative clinical sequelae, including increased mortality, even when adjusted for illness severity. Clinical trial registration |
Obesity - an unexplained epidemic. These scientific hypotheses must be rigorously evaluated, as even partial confirmation would dramatically shift and expand current prevention and treatment strategies. Urgent new investment in research is required. Simultaneously, uncertain evidence on the obesity epidemic's primary drivers does not mean there is no evidence on actions that can help, and existing science must be more rapidly translated and refined into clinical, public health, and policy interventions. |
Sugar-sweetened beverage and sugar consumption and colorectal cancer incidence and mortality according to anatomic subsite. SSB and total fructose consumption were associated with increased incidence and mortality of proximal colon cancer, particularly during later stages of tumorigenesis. |
Ultra-processed foods and risk of all-cause mortality in renal transplant recipients. Consumption of ultra-processed foods, in particular sugar-sweetened beverages, desserts, and processed meats, is associated with a higher risk of all-cause mortality after renal transplantation, independently of low adherence to high-quality dietary patterns, such as the Mediterranean diet and the DASH diet. |
Vitamin D and brain health: an observational and Mendelian randomization study. Low vitamin D status was associated with neuroimaging outcomes and the risks of dementia and stroke even after extensive covariate adjustment. MR analyses support a causal effect of vitamin D deficiency on dementia but not on stroke risk. |

Decreasing length of stay and inpatient mortality associated with pancreatic cancer hospitalizations: A United States national survey from 2008 to 2017. Although the total number of pancreatic cancer hospitalizations increased, there was a decline for per million US population. Additionally, mean LOS and inpatient mortality decreased between 2008 and 2017. |
Preoperative risk factors for positivity of peritoneal lavage cytology in patients with pancreatic ductal adenocarcinoma in the era of neoadjuvant therapy. The preoperative risk factors of CY-positive PDAC are body and tail PDAC in 356 patients who did not receive NAC. However, there is no useful predictive factor for CY positivity in patients treated with NAC. Based on these results, it was difficult to determine the optimal indication for SL especially in NAC cases. |
